The first stage of learning Shamanism. The foundation. The supporting pillar.

We call it Chalicity. Mongolian Shamans call it 'Bak Tam Stay Saub'

Your absolute protection against "The Miasma" (Social Conditioning)

Its about learning discipline and developing your hook into the natural world.

You need to be sure that your Shamanism is real or you will end up falling into the trap that 90% of people fall into when learning Shamanism.

The second component of Chalicity

In episode 7 we revealed the first component of Chalicity. Bhatt. If you haven't listened to this episode yet, you can listen right here.

In this episode we discuss Bhatt a little bit more and then move onto the second component of chalicity. Tor-Shil-Teel.

Whilst Bhatt is about learning discipline, tor-shil-teen is about retaining those child-like, playful characteristics. That experimental quality children have (and wild animals) to the outside world.

Its about gaining that feedback from the natural world, and importantly, learning from it.

It's so important to test and gain feedback from reality. We need to recognize and dismiss 'learned' behaviors that are detrimental to our Shamanism.

This episode has some practical exercises for you so be sure to have a listen.

This is the episode that covers some of the groundwork. It sets scene on what you can expect in future episodes, but it also gives you a flavour of the reality of Shamanism.
Shamanism is not about banging a drum and imagining that you are falling down a hole. In fact, its probably one of the most misunderstood practices there is.
This episode goes deep into the realities of Shamanism. The underlying principles. What it’s really all about. As well as the very first thing you need to do to get started.
Shamanism is a nuanced subject. There is no such thing as black or white… This or that… Its experiential, disciplined and can be dangerous.
This is why the mission of this podcast is to bring a complete foundation of Shamanism to you step by step. Every episode will build on the last, one jigsaw piece at a time.
